I understand your take and, to an extend, you are right. I know his work demands a lot more from him than university does for me, but what would he do if he wasn't married or if I was working full time? He knows he deposited a heavy burden on me and is sorry for that.

We did agree on a monthly meeting about finances and to share each and every little thing we may spend to one another, that way we both have an easy record of where the money is going. I agree. Even if he doesn't do the hard economy everyday he is supposed to know exactly how much he has (mind you, he cannot for the life of him remember how much his salary is) and how much there is available to spend. That way we don't create a newer problem of trust, at least.
